Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Involvement of the lysosome in the catabolism of intracellular lysophosphatidylcholine and evidence for distinct pools of lysophosphatidylcholine.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
The role of the lysosome in the metabolism of lysophosphatidylcholine was investigated in isolated rat hepatocytes. Chloroquine, primaquine, and ammonium chloride caused a 2.5-fold increase in radioactive lysophosphatidylcholine in [methyl-3H]choline ...

Remote Monitoring in Myasthenia Gravis: Exploring Symptom Variability

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness and potential life‐threatening crises. While continuous specialized care is essential, access barriers often delay timely interventions. To address this, we developed MyaLink, a telemedical platform for MG patients.

Dietary fats modulate the regulatory potential of dietary cholesterol on cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase gene expression

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
Cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (cyp7) is the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid biosynthesis. Previously, dietary cholesterol was shown to induce cyp7 gene expression. However, recent studies have produced data that are inconsistent with this observation,

Apolipoprotein Mimetic Peptides: Potential New Therapies for Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesCells, 2021
Since the seminal breakthrough of treating diabetic patients with insulin in the 1920s, there has been great interest in developing other proteins and their peptide mimetics as therapies for a wide variety of other medical disorders. Currently, there are

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.

Lipoprotein apheresis to treat elevated lipoprotein (a) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2016
An elevated plasma concentration of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Life style modification and currently available drugs either fail to effectively lower plasma Lp(a) levels or do not result in clinical benefit. However, lipoprotein apheresis is very efficient in decreasing Lp(a) concentrations.

Deficient Cholesterol Esterification in Plasma of apoc2 Knockout Zebrafish and Familial Chylomicronemia Patients. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hypertriglyceridemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Apolipoprotein C-II (APOC2) is an obligatory cofactor for lipoprotein lipase (LPL), the major enzyme catalyzing plasma triglyceride hydrolysis.
